Daniel Burrows the maintainer of aptitude is a member of this list. Perhaps he might find some time to respond. I did look into the same question a while back. I believe what it comes down to is the lower the score of the solution the better. Although I could be wrong about that. I took just a minute to see if I could remember where exactly I read about it. I'm fairly sure it was the aptitude user's manual written by Daniel. http://algebraicthunk.net/~dburrows/projects/aptitude/doc/en/index.html Hope this helps. And if you do find the answer, please come back and let us all know. - -- Daryl Styrk Naples, FL USA -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkoWbcoACgkQ6baBhW8CzrhvvgCfcTN83B+1tLTwwBffDZI5g8/m pzcAoICzSaV1cCYiCxBxmf10yQtWhE5+ =ZnOm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
